I find it incredibly disruptive every time this page comes up and it’s never completely capable of restoring my tabs. Is there any way to disable it so that it will instead update when I choose to restart Firefox?
When this happens, Firefox has been updated in the background & the non-updated parts that’re loaded into memory attempted to load one of the updated parts & found that they were no longer compatible, causing this message to appear.
At this point you HAVE to restart Firefox in order to be able to use it, no way around it. Soooo very fun on Mac & Linux since both can update in the background. It’s also possible to have this happen on Windows, but it’s far more rare as it seems to require having multiple different instances running at once.
On Linux at least, if you install through the package manager, it’ll only update when you update the rest of your packages. And you can be completely in control of when that happens.
On my work Mac, I just update manually. The menu icon tells me when a new version is available, so I update within a day or two of that popping up.

Except on Ubuntu. Also, fuck snaps
Ew, those get installed via the regular package manager?
Don’t use Ubuntu then…
Are you on Ubuntu/using a snap installed Firefox?
I’m on macOS.
Oh, I am sorry
